about

Music Trad./ Words Arr. Carter

lyrics

You can tell yourself anything you like
Dreams are made of money
From your mortage down to your kid’s first bike
Dreams are made of money
When you’re in the red and you long for black
Dreams are made of money
When your head’s full of worry as you hit the sack
Dreams are made of money

Here’s the rainy day we’ve been spending for
Dreams are made of money
Now we’ve blown the loan and we still need more
Dreams are made of money
And we’re bailing out as the markets crash
Dreams are made of money
When we’re strapped to a parachute that’s made of cash
Dreams are made of money

Condemned, condemned, you can hear the cry
Dreams are made of money
While the placards wave and the banners fly
Dreams are made of money
Keep your CV handy and your hopes alive
Dreams are made of money
If you’re broke and you know it, wave your P45
Dreams are made of money

You can tell yourself anything you like
Dreams are made of money
From your mortage down to your kid’s first bike
Dreams are made of money
When you’re in the red and you long for black
Dreams are made of money
When your heads full of worry as you hit the sack
Dreams are made of money
